Kristen Moss & Blaire Hayes Owners

Flight Boutique Since 2009 562 Main St. and 577 Main St., Park City 435-604-0806

Flight Boutique opened just over two years ago, but in that short amount of time, owners and Park City natives Kristen Moss and Blaire Hayes have developed a must-stop shop for fashionistas of all breeds. “We are different, innovative and offer a wide price range from that designer piece you will have forever to an affordable, fun party dress,” said Moss, who along with high school pal and fellow University of Utah business grad Hayes, spent time honing her fashion chops outside the Beehive State before returning to Flight. Hayes, who worked as a stylist in New York for Vogue and W, and Moss, who coordinated L.A. Fashion Week shows and

a showroom featuring eight designers, have brought their style acumen to build an impressive mix of dressy to casual clothing and accessories. Designer duds share equal real estate with lower-priced, but equally chic and trend-on pieces, while accessories like printed scarves, playful jewelry and casual booties bring an added boost to the assortment. Better yet? The mix covers ground from higher-priced contemporary lines peaking at $400 by the likes of Elizabeth & James and Theory to steals below the $100 mark by BB Dakota and Mink Pink. “We strive to be the best we can for our clients,” says Hayes, noting she and Moss pride themselves on being in the

shops every day and use social media like Facebook and Twitter to keep customers in the loop. “We listen to their wants and needs, [and] it has really helped finding fashion pieces at good prices.” Flight Boutique has also, well, taken flight in recent months. A second store opened its doors up the street from the flagship in April, and Moss and Hayes have big plans to take their offering to the web with an online shop slated to bow this fall. “We bring new, exclusive brands to Utah,” says Moss, who in the postrecession economic climate is looking forward to ski season. “We’re excited for the winter and have so many amazing pieces to offer our clients.”
